WIP Progress: Kimono

I've finally made some real progress on the kimono. Okay, I'm not halfway done or anything, but I finally got past the color change:

The needle in this next pic is a 7" DPN, size US 15, for scale:

I was beginning to get discouraged and wondering whether to just give up the notion of doing the color change in-pattern instead of straight across, but I stuck it out. Now that it's all pink, it's going much faster, but I am debating whether to put the green stripe across the shoulders as originally planned, or just go with green at the edges. I guess I'll see how my patience holds out when I get that far.
